In Act One, a young lawyer, has been sent to the home of a client, a ninety-two-year-old woman, “A”, to sort out her finances. The woman, frail and perhaps a bit senile, resists and is of no help. In her b beautifully appointed bedroom, the old woman prods, discusses and bickers with the lawyer and with her middle aged companions as her own long life is laid out for display. She cascades from regal and charming to vicious and wretched as she wonders about and remembers her life. Finally, as she recounts her most painful memory, she suffers a stroke. In Act Two, the three women are now the stages of “A’s” life: the imperious old woman, the regal matron and the young woman of twenty-six. Her life, memories and reminiscences—pondered in the first act—are now unceremoniously examined, questioned, accepted or not, but, at last, understood.
